In the case of my property, Bob had been seen a couple weeks prior to his disappearance by my colleague, who helped keep an eye on the property, changing the locks; only my colleague and Bob had a key to the new lock.After Bob vanished, I was left with about $10,000 worth of paid for, unfinished work, plus the additional $10,000 I had to shell out, and my colleague was out approximately $15,000 for starting his second property.ITEMS AND OBSERVATIONS AFTER THE FACT:Bob had about six investors (that we now know about), both local and out of town, who had the exact same issues in the same timeframe;When he disappeared, Bob had approximately $100,000 in paid for, unfinished work between the six owners, not counting tens of thousands of dollars in shoddy work, ALSO not counting the losses of items stolen afterward;After Bob’s disappearance, EACH one’s property was broken into, with the loss of appliances, HVAC components, granite countertops, and all varieties of building materials, adding up to tens of thousands of dollars;Bob is known to have used fake and unrelated addresses, claimed possession of properties he didn't own, and generally changes his stories when pressed, especially when called out.Bob utilizes two long-expired contractor license numbers on the letterhead of his estimates, and he has no current licenses.To summarize this review, STAY AWAY FROM THIS MAN AND HIS ASSOCIATES!!

Ok I am a realtor in the South Florida Area, I wanted to know is there a separate component for Commercial Listings?

@Michael J: The paint on the exterior of the duplex is in very bad condition, it is peeling badly and I do not think we can paint over it without it looking very sloppy, so it will definately need to be scraped off.

Do we need to have some legal document in place to define how profits or losses are to be split?

In this agreement the roles are clearly defined as you stated above, but you should not allow her to close in her name with your funds.

Micah, Yes I feel I have definately earned my blunder stripes with this one.

Your question is not clearly defined in terms of "race."
